...Soil & The Sun...

This is a band that I came across a while ago and really enjoy. Doug may remember this song from the "Summer Camp" mix I made last June. This past week, I met a great guy, Ted, that is in town interning for a few months and lives in community with some of these guys when he's back in Michigan. He sent me this video, and I thought that I would share it with you guys. I hope to have them out our way to play a show, sometime in the future. Please, check out their bandcamp site to stream their albums and purchase their music at a very reasonable price.

Rumor has it that they're going to be opening up for Portugal the Man. If you've only got a few minutes, check out the video above which is an excerpt from a live studio interview. If you've got some time to spare, make sure to check out the session in its fulness at Audiotree Live.

yes! love it. check out this non-studio live version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOxpGzknDuo) - it's missing the stings & second drummer & a few of the other bells & whistles, but the raw energy makes it better than this take. i'd love to see these guys play - or join their band maybe - they seem pretty expansive. love the drummer with the dreads - he's so chill & excellent & i love the personal touches to his kit. his relaxed, focused posture reminds me of paul. dig it very muchly. d
